Description

Episode 104 of The People's Podcast welcomes our first international guest: Antoinette Newton-Acquah. You can call her Toni.



Toni is an exceptionally brilliant 25 year-old entrepreneur who has started a health & wellness company called Flowers & Moondust based out of her parents' home country -- Ghana. The story behind how she ended up back in Ghana -- she was born in Upstate New York and grew up outside of Philadelphia -- is as compelling as it gets



Toni and Jay talk about (Interview starts at around the 17:25 mark):



• Her childhood in the northeast

• Fixing the differences between Africans & African Americans

• How she persevered through a "dysfunctional" family

• How a small college in Maine changed her life

• Her foray into journalism

• How the loss of her mostly absent father led her back to Ghana

• Where "Flowers & Moondust" came from?

• How she has been able to cultivate business partnerships

• Her thoughts on the United States now that she sees it from Africa



Plus: Jay explains the sudden "name change" and we show love to a Detroit icon and extremely funny man: John Witherspoon.
